One of the coolest features of this little guy... USB modem support! If I could get a cheap data-only plan (in Canada?! AHAHHAHAHAH) then I could use it as a little failsafe WAN connection! #footiMac #selfhost #homelab #networking

#infosec and #networking friends local and abroad, I hope this captures in part what some of you are fearing, sensing, or seeing. There is a lot more one could say, but topically relevant here, an excerpt to locally elected government officials:
"[...] I'm seeing and experiencing…

verdict: I should have got this router 2 years ago.... as the apple nerds (me) say: the DNS loopback/hairpin "just worked"!
so much fun to be had with this little beasty! tons of config options.
success!

Assume two machines in the same network each have a link-local address (LLA) and a unique-local address (ULA). They could talk to each other with either address. Is there some kind of prioritizing the one over the other, e.g. always use LLA if available else use ULA?

testing out the connection speed. Looks good max for my Telus Fibre connection.
I toyed with the idea of getting one with a 2.5Gb class WAN port as I believe Telus is offering >1Gb connections now... but I resisted. This was only $80 and is far more feature rich than the telus router and should be just as fast if not faster thanks to better internals than the Telus router.
